Theatre 麻豆原创 will hold its annual Halloween Costume Sale on Wednesday, Oct. 24 from 8 a.m.-4 p.m. in room 218D (Key West) of the Student Union on the university campus.<\/p>\n
Featuring one-of-a-kind costumes, the sale has become popular with people seeking unique costumes for the holiday. Full costumes can be purchased or buyers can creatively build an original concept from the many pieces. The costumes come from a range of productions including the 1950s-themed The Pajama Game,<\/em> the 1970s-themed Deathtrap, <\/em>and the No Sex Please, We\u2019re British, <\/em>as well as a dance concert and an array of productions placed in more recent time periods.<\/p>\n This year, the Theatre 麻豆原创 costume shop has been busy \u201czombifying\u201d clothes in preparation for the sale. A popular item among the students working in the costume shop is the selection of \u201czombified\u201d bridesmaid dresses.<\/p>\n In addition to the zombie costumes, between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m., members of the Advanced Theatre Makeup class will demonstrate how to apply zombie makeup and prosthetics. The makeup lessons are free and the students will be seeking volunteers for the makeup applications.<\/p>\n Dan Jones, costume shop manager for Theatre 麻豆原创, explained why zombies have infested the costume sale this year. \u201cZombies are a fun, hot thing, especially around this time of year. Plus it will help build the excitement for our upcoming production of Zombie Town<\/em>, which is a new script and deserves as much excitement as possible,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n Zombie Town: A Documentary Play<\/em> is a comedy written by Tim Bauer and will run at Theatre 麻豆原创 starting Nov. 15. \u201cTo complete the cycle,\u201d says Jones, \u201cthe zombie costumes used in this production will most likely be sold at next year\u2019s sale.\u201d<\/p>\n The Halloween sale is a benefit for the theatre department. The proceeds from the sale go back to the costume shop and augment costume budgets for future productions, particularly those with student designers like the dance concert or graduate thesis productions.<\/p>\n The costume sale is open to the public. Most items are priced at less than $10. Cash is preferred, but checks also will be accepted. Credit cards cannot be used. For directions to the Student Union, visit http:\/\/ucfsu.com\/directions\/.
